Are you exercising during the day? Do you shut your phone and tv off 30 minutes before sleep? Do you try reading before sleep? Are you setting your room up for optimal sleep space? Have you tried wearing a sleep eye mask?

Nice, ok. I would definitely try to remove the phone and tv from your routine for ~30 minutes prior to shutting the lights off. This can help get your brain in the right space for shutting off. That coupled with reading and eye mask help to block out a lot of the world we live in during the day, and can lead to more restful sleep.

Also one thing that helps me is to listen to some light classical music, or some pleasant white noise (waves crashing, rain pouring, whatever) for the first 30 minutes-hour of sleep. If you have a google home or Alexa you can set a timer so it will shut off after a bit. Sometimes this light noise can help distract my brain from any thoughts rattling around.

If after all of this you really can’t sleep, or aren’t sleeping enough, I’d talk to your PCP. Could be something going on behind the scenes. I would advise against weed for now while you figure it out. Weed, while it can knock you out, doesn’t often lead to restful sleep, and can mess with your dreams and thoughts pre and post sleep (personal experiences).

I’m interested in pursuing cosmetic dermatology (possible Botox and laser treatment) for the first time. I’ve done a ton of research and the derm I’m most interested in going to charges a $150 consult fee but does NOT apply that cost to any treatments you get, whereas from my research it seems like derms in my city usually do apply the consult fee to the treatments. Would you pass on her due to that additional cost, or consider it worth it to see the derm you want to see?

I flunked out of school and had no options when I joined the army. I hated every second of my time in, and spent all my weekends getting as drunk as possible.

Now that I’m out, I graduated with my BA in Econ, got a job I love, and somehow got into an M7 Bschool with a 670 GMAT. I look back on my time in and laugh, and still talk with some of my old army buddies (though not as often anymore)

Amazing how time can change your perspective, because 10 years ago I never thought I’d be here.

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.

I think I may have made a huge mistake today. My skip level director sent out an email about something and asked us for feedback. I sent back a note and provided some. One of the things I said was that our job satisfaction might be improved if we could do more of X kind of work instead of Y kind of work that we do so much of in our group. The next thing I know, I get a ping from his EA to set up time for me to chat with him and my director tomorrow. I am getting in trouble tomorrow, right?
